When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 1444 Jin Yue 45
Pei Yuan opened the porcelain bottle, inside were two pills, one large and one small. Pei Yuan fed the smaller pill to Pei Yun, and swallowed the other one himself without hesitation.

When it comes to ruthlessness, Pei Yuan is no less so.

Lin Jinzhu's eyes were blurry with tears: "Yuan-ge'er, from now on, I'll have to take good care of your younger brother. He's still young, and I haven't seen him many times over the years, so he probably doesn't remember me much..."

Pei Yuan clenched his fist: "Mother, I will take good care of my younger brother."

Lin Jinzhu didn't have time to be sad about anything else and immediately changed the subject: "Your father has been running this business for many years and has the support of the clan. He has a lot of backup plans over the years. After I'm gone, you must work hard to keep all of these in your own hands."

"We should avoid using this mother-child Gu worm unless absolutely necessary, and save it as a life-saving measure when needed..."

Cheng Sui and Lin Jinyue watched as Lin Jinzhu explained everything to Pei Yun on the screen, and their expressions differed.

Lin Jinyue couldn't bear to see this: "Does Lin Jinzhu have to die? Come to think of it, she didn't do anything too outrageous to me. But now, watching her die is still making me feel uneasy."

Tan You: "It's not that I want her dead, it's that Pei Yun and the entire Pei family want her dead. How can the Pei family tolerate a woman who has lost the support of her maternal family?"

Cheng Sui spoke up for Lin Jinyue: "Master, my mother is just kind-hearted. In her eyes, Lin Jinzhu's crime did not deserve to die, and she should not have ended up like this."

Tan You said softly, "The reason she married into the Pei family was entirely because of Lin Yuan and Lin Jinyu. But Lin Yuan and Lin Jinyu are responsible for your mother's death; they are your mother's killers."

"Lin Jinzhu is a natural beneficiary. I admit that the harm should not extend to the children, but if the children have benefited from the other party's kindness, shouldn't they repay it?"

"Lin Yuan's kindness in raising you was completely repaid after you married into the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. You owe no one in the Lin family anything."

“But Lin Jinzhu is different. Her life and fortune depend entirely on Lin Yuan and Lin Jinyu. Without them, Lin Jinzhu is doomed.”

Lin Jinyue was persuaded and nodded: "What you say is true. I only saw how pitiful she is now, but I didn't think about my mother. It's my fault."

Tan You: "Kindness is a good thing, but kindness without principles is undoubtedly foolish."

Lin Jinyue was somewhat annoyed: "Miss!"

Cheng Suishun stroked his hair: "Mother, Master wasn't wrong. Think about it, when you were driven to the manor, did anyone in the Lin family care about you? When we lived in the side courtyard, who took care of us?"

Lin Jinyue's kindness vanished completely. She clenched her handkerchief tightly and said, "Yes, they have never been kind to us. You're right, young lady. I didn't distinguish between our positions."

Tan You nodded: "It's good that you understand. Lin Jinzhu's current fate is just the result of a domino effect."

Cheng Sui: "Master, why are you helping her?"

Tan You glanced at Pei Yuan on the screen: "I'm not helping her, I'm helping Pei Yuan and his brother. If I don't intervene, these two children are doomed."

“Lin Jinzhu is no good person, but how good is Pei Yun? It’s unfair to watch bad people do evil without being punished. Besides, if I don’t get involved, the karma of these two children will fall on my shoulders.”

"In that case, let's give Pei Yuan a chance to grow."

“Pei Yun cannot die, at least not until Pei Yuan can stand on his own.

Cheng Sui rested his chin on his hand: "So we're quite similar. We both need a shield in front of us to help us transition smoothly." "But I don't like him. If he weren't Lin Jinzhu's son, maybe we could get along."

Tan You said objectively, "No one is demanding that you be brothers. Pei Yuan, if he grows up, he will be another Pei Yun."

Cheng Sui understood: "Then let's keep our distance from him from now on. If he's capable, he can take control of everything in the Pei family. As for the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, it will only belong to me in the future."

He could certainly go out and make his own way in the world, but since he has ancestral property to inherit, why doesn't he fight for it? It should rightfully be his!
Tan You gave Lin Jinzhu three days, during which time Lin Jinzhu handed over everything in the mansion. Pei Yun simply watched coldly; he couldn't possibly go to a doctor in the market.

Once the news of his failing health gets out, how will he save face? His career will come to an end.

The family doctor took his pulse and withdrew his hand after a long time, his face full of solemnity: "I cannot detect the effect of this medicine, but your body... as it stands now, has already suffered a complete loss of kidney yang."

"You no longer know how to wake up in the morning these days..."

Pei Yun nodded, his face full of ruthlessness: "To be honest, that's been the case these past few days."

He may not be interested in women, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have these physical desires. However, ever since he had dinner with Lin Jinzhu that day, Pei Yuan has found that he has no sexual desire.

The old doctor shook his head: "If there are any remnants that can be studied, perhaps I have a way."

Pei Yun shook his head: "She destroyed everything, leaving nothing behind."

He was unaware that while he was unconscious, his eldest son had administered a mother-child Gu poison to him. Now, Pei Yun's thoughts were entirely focused on Lin Jinzhu, and he hated her to the core.

He had been scheming for so many years, and he was about to succeed, but Lin Jinzhu turned the tables on him.

She sacrificed her life to completely disrupt all his and his family's plans, forcing him to not only never remarry but also to treat her two children well.

After all, he is now considered a useless person. If he can't raise the child well, how will he have any status in the family in the future?
Lin Jinzhu completely blocked the path of remarriage.

The old doctor shook his head, sighing in admiration at Lin Jinzhu's cunning; this was even more ruthless than cutting off Pei Yun's lineage.

But he couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for Lin Jinzhu. She did all this for her child, not for herself, which showed her maternal love.

"Did Yuan-ge'er... participate?" The old doctor hesitated for a moment before asking.

Pei Yun shook his head as he recalled Pei Yuan's behavior that day: "He didn't know that he had argued with his mother after the incident."

The old doctor was not only the family's physician but also an elder in the clan: "Since he wasn't involved, that's fine. After all, he's your son and a descendant of the Pei family, so he still needs to be properly raised."

Pei Yun agreed: "Uncle, I understand. Whether I like it or not, I will do my best to raise Yuan-ge'er and his younger brother from now on."

He's doing this with a heavy heart, but he has no choice. In Pei Yun's and his family's plan, once Lin Jinzhu dies, he will remarry, and after having a second wife, he will gradually marginalize his two children.

But who could have imagined that things would turn out so differently from what he envisioned?
